Rather than leave the hypothetical safely in its realm, Vellum Interactive has crafted a boxing game in which the two contenders face off against a lineup of partisan contenders consisting of Joe Biden, Al Gore, Bill Clinton, the Ghost of FDR, John Boehner, Paul Ryan, Rick Perry and more.

Here are some of the features one can expect from Political Arena when it hits iOS and Android this Thursday.

* Tongue-in-cheek dialogue to accompany humorously drawn political figures.
* Over a dozen hilarious opponents you can take down in the Political Arena.
* Face paced and skill driven boxing action.

* 10% of all In-App purchases will be donated by Vellum Interactive to the candidate's victory fund of your choice. (You can opt-out if you prefer not to contribute).
* Photo Album stores key moments in each of your fights.
* Social media integration for sharing photos and accomplishments.
* Game Center integration with Leaderboards and Achievements to unlock.

It's an interesting way to cash in on current events, isn't it? Unfortunately the game doesn't look half as entertaining as Chair's version of a presidential smack down.

My suggestion? If you really want to support your presidential candidate's victory fund, just send them money. I hear they like that.
